Getting a haircut can be such a scary and over-whelming experience for a neurodivergent child, but this book will help allay any fear a child might have. It not only goes through what to expect at the hairdressers, but also shares clever tips to cope with challenges (e.g wearing your ear defenders upside down so your hair can be cut!). Another gem in this neuro-affirming and beautifully presented book series "Ready Eddie Go!"
Ready Eddie Go! New Haircut provides a walk-through which describes Eddie's experience of visiting the hairdresser. It provides opportunities for the reader to think about how they might experience this too. The book includes helpful and unique tips for overcoming tricky moments. For example, Eddie places his ear defenders on upside-down so that he can protect his ears against the noise of the hair dryers, and the hairdresser can continue to cut his hair.
